Who to believe?

So who do I believe? The CBC or MSNBC? I’d like to believe my national broadcasting station, since it’s the patriotic thing to do, but I’d like to believe MSNBC because they reported that less people died. It’s no wonder I don’t trust the media.

Ever notice that when CNN covers suicide bombing that their death tolls are usually worded like this “7 people and a suicide bomber are dead after…”
Perhaps in an attempt to dehumanize the bomber.
How would you say it? I would likely report it as “8 people dead including the bomber”
Perhaps this mentality accounts for the missing dead person in MSNBC’s news headline.
Just a theory…

Hi there!

My name is Troy and I can be quite the grumpy cat sometimes. I really, really like board games, of which I own a house full, but blog about anything but. I also collect comic books and play a lot of video games. I'm married and my wife is awesome! (Obviously she wrote this.) Still curious?
